Business Information
Eric Carlson, DO is a geriatric medicine physician at Intermountain Health’s Southridge Senior Care in Riverton, Utah, supporting patients in Riverton, South Jordan, West Jordan, Herriman, and surrounding communities. He creates tailored care plans that balance medical and emotional needs—adjusting medications for comfort, using non-drug approaches for behavioral issues, and ensuring patients’ environments foster safety and independence. He places a strong emphasis on partnering with families, offering guidance, education, and emotional support as they navigate the complex and often challenging stages of dementia.

Dr. Carlson enjoys cases that involve helping patients maintain independence after a debilitating fall, guiding families through the early stages of dementia with compassion and clarity, and simplifying medication regimens to restore a patient’s energy and quality of life. He enjoys finding ways where small changes—like improving nutrition, adjusting home safety, or addressing sensory issues—can greatly enhance a patient’s daily well-being. These moments affirm his belief that geriatric medicine is about enriching life, not just extending it.

Dr. Carlson has devoted a majority of his career to caring for older adults with dementia, blending clinical expertise with compassion and a holistic approach. For him, the goal is not only to manage symptoms, but to preserve dignity, nurture meaningful connections, and help patients live with the highest possible quality of life at every stage of the disease.

Outside the clinic, the Michigan native treasures time with his wife and three children. He also enjoys rock climbing, trail running, and the occasional gold panning adventure—always on the lookout for the next summit, finish line, or hidden treasure.
